I personally think that the elements of a good story are characters with distinct personalities, moving towards a clear main line, very logical conflicts and contradictions, and seemingly impossible but inevitable, dramatic plot twists.
These points are basically included in fz, so he is a good-looking animated story. My appreciative ability is not high, and I can't reach the level of appreciating epics, and fz is already very much in line with my appetite.
First of all, a character with a distinct personality. Each of the main characters here is different, and there is no face-masking.
Towards a clear main line: The story revolves around the battle and slaughter of the heroic spirits of seven people in order to obtain the "Holy Grail" of wishing machines that can fulfill any wish.
Contradictions that are logical: Contradictions stem from the struggle for the Holy Grail itself, as well as from human character. Conflict exists not only among the 7 masters and 7 familiars, but also within. There's a lot of conflict, and if it's not handled well, the progression, progression, and turns of the story will seem very illogical and unnatural, but it's handled very well here. That is to say, the so-called foreshadowing and the subsequent results echo each other, which makes people feel logical but very unexpected.
This story has 7 main groups of characters, the master-slave relationship and the character of each heroic spirit determine its destined ending. The masters and slaves of the three major job agencies are all very poorly compatible, making their advantages turn into disadvantages, while the other four secondary job agencies are all very compatible, which makes people look forward to unexpected changes.
I won't go into details, but my favorite episode is the night when Matou Kariya tried to strangle Aoi Tohsaka. At that moment, my joy (?) reached the highest level like Mr. Jin and Mr. Ma.
However, perhaps because this is one of a series, the incompleteness of its background, content and worldview may still be a little bit of a headache. But in order to understand the world view, it is difficult to add too many things, so...emm deducted a star.
(PS: King Arthur is a man or something, as expected... I can't accept it.)
